TOPIC: A Mark on a Page
This week, Dan and Merlin kick off by talking about Dan's recent interview with "Weird Al" and how he's such an interesting harbinger of changing times for media and platforms.
Next, Merlin responds to a listener's question about how he uses a notebook, which leads to an extended dissertation on how to ruin your notebook in the best way possible. Nothing doesn't go in here.

- Siracusa on Toasters — Liss is More
Fast forward four years. John, Marco, and myself are now hosting ATP. When Cards Against Humanity decided to sponsor our show, Max decided as usual to eschew a normal ad read. Instead, he had a brilliant idea: CAH would send John a toaster to review.
We’ve been asked more than once to have a compendium of all of these reviews. This is it.
